23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1965 Spa 500kms, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of intense racing action at the iconic Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium. The date is etched into history - 16th May 1965. Amidst the roaring engines and adrenaline-filled atmosphere, we find John Whitmore behind the wheel of his powerful Shelby Cobra Daytona. As our eyes delve deeper into the image, we can almost feel the tension building up as Whitmore pushes his limits on this legendary track. However, fate had other plans for him that day as he was forced to retire from the race prematurely. Despite his disappointment, there is an undeniable sense of determination radiating from Whitmore's posture and focused expression. The photograph captures not only a fleeting moment frozen in time but also encapsulates the spirit of motorsport itself – relentless pursuit of victory despite setbacks. The composition beautifully highlights both Whitmore's car and its surroundings while maintaining a sense of motion through clever use of depth-of-field. This remarkable image is a testament to Motorsport Images' commitment to preserving historic moments like these for generations to come. With their world copyright ensuring its authenticity, this print serves as a window into an era when racing legends battled it out on some of the most challenging circuits around the globe.
